One week out and not feeling well!

[shawneey41 17]

I am one week out today and I'm just not feeling great. I have trouble getting in my Protein and all my Water. I am on liquids only till I have my follow up on the 18th. I am not really hurting anymore not on pain meds but have a lot of nausea. Is this normal or should I be concerned?

I was the same way at a week out. But you really have to make sure to stay hydrated. Remember that Protein Shakes count toward your liquid goal. Hang in-it gets better.

Hope I starts getting better for you

Sorry.. meant to say I hope it starts to get better for you

It'll get better. I felt pretty icky at a week out and that first two weeks HATED having to drink my Protein shakes and Water. I couldn't figure out how I was going to get it all in. Then every day got better.

Best wishes on a speedy recovery.

My NUT doesn't count Protein Shakes towards the liquids. Sucks.

Very normal

Yes, completely normal. The fact that you're not in pain is great!!! Just keep moving and sipping and you'll feel more like yourself every day!

Hi Shawna. Congratulations on doing so well. 15 lbs in two weeks, I hope I have those kind of results. Nice to talk to another Shawna!

Shawna,

Good to hear you are doing well. I think the Doctors office failed to submit some paperwork. I am pretty sure they will get things resolved soon. I am ready to get the show on the road. I am doing pretty good pre-op, I have lost 40 lbs and not even started the pre-op diet. I just have 60 to 70 pounds to reach my goal weight. I am taking this serious this time - no more yo-yo weight loss, I hope...

Talk to you later,

Rick
